The Share Trust completed a detailed analysis of a $60 million Alternative Pooled Fund model in the Middle East, applying the same cost-efficiency analysis model from Passing the Buck. This analysis finds that redeploying funds from an international partner to a local partner would result in cost efficiencies of 13.6% on salaries and overheads alone, realizing $545,000 in savings that can be used to deliver against unmet humanitarian needs.
